Most Influential Paper (MIP) award winning paper,
Analysis and Testing of Web Applications, initiated a
new stream of research devoted to the development of testing techniques for web applications.
His comprehensive book
Reverse Engineering of Object-Oriented Code laid
the foundations for the reverse engineering of object-oriented systems.
His ISSTA 2004 paper
Evolutionary Testing of Classes
is recognized as a milestone for the automated generation of object oriented test cases.
One of the most widely used Java test case generators, EvoSuite,
